Horses as partners, as teachers, as fellow travelers asking no favors and returning respect for respect. The horse is good. These images by Viggo Mortensen are from Morocco, South Dakota, Montana, California, Iceland, New Zealand, Denmark, Brazil, Argentina, and perhaps from the view out your window. As Joseph Campbell put it, "Once having traversed the threshold, the hero moves in a dream landscape of curiously fluid, ambiguous forms, where he must survive a succession of trials." The horse as hero.Hardcover, 7.5 x 10.5 inches, 80 pages

In his foreword to these highly personal documentary interventions by Cuban artist Henry Eric, Kevin Power writes that "Eric's broader sense of history has anchored itself in the particulars of his own life and artwork. His central metaphors are, perhaps, repair, respect, and recovery: the redress of the injustices official history always does to the small actors who lived and made it." Most people outside of Cuba are largely ignorant of the details of "official history" in that country, and completely unaware -- as most Cubans themselves may be -- of the parallel stories that have not found their place in the sanctioned version of events. This book makes a valiant and uncompromising effort to show a little of what has been hidden, and what we, thanks to Eric's carefully documented, often wry observations, now are able to identify and thus save from oblivion. Lies and truths, this book seems to say, have equal weight in memory. Both will continue to exist and be recorded. Sometimes, as in LA REVANCHA, we get a little more than we hope for, something more than worth remembering. Bilingual Edition, published in Spanish and English.

By Viggo Mortensen. This book functions as a partial companion to the upcoming photo exhibit , also titled Skovbo (which roughly translates from Danish as "home in the forest"), by Viggo Mortensen at the Reykjavik Museum of Photography (Ljósmyndasafn Reykjavikur), opening on 31st May, 2008 and running until 31st August, 2008. In this new collection of images and poems are trees and the memory of trees, ghosts, words, nights, days, lives, deaths, and safe haven for them all in the place where "...the twigs become branches, / And the mist becomes make-believe..." (Osip Emilyevich Mandelstam). If you daren't enter the forest, or cannot find it, then perhaps you might find one tree, or a place where a tree could be, and just stop for a quiet moment to see what happens. $30, 124pp, 9" W x 11.25" H, Softcover, 978-0981974705

The pictures in this book have been made with different cameras, techniques, and, unavoidably, with all the longing, love, laughter, doubts, and mistakes that have shaped my life so far. I've given them titles and dates, but they do not represent a chronology of events or a conscious point-of-view. As always, more than I can possibly imagine has been left out of these glimpses of what is ultimately ungraspable, unnameable. I dedicate this distillation of isolated instants to my brothers, Charles and Walter, and to our father. Viggo Mortensen, October, 2017
